About the Units

Kilogram (kg)

The kilogram (kg) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI). Originally defined in 1795 as the mass of one liter of water at 4 °C, it was redefined in 2019 using the Planck constant for greater precision. The kilogram is used worldwide for science, industry, and everyday commerce. Most countries outside the US use kilograms as their primary unit of weight.

Stone (st)

The stone (st) is a unit of weight equal to 14 pounds or approximately 6.35 kilograms. It has been used in the British Isles since the Middle Ages for trade and commerce. Today, the stone is primarily used in the United Kingdom and Ireland to express body weight. For example, a person might say they weigh "11 stone" rather than 154 pounds or 70 kilograms.
